[29]     An obiter dictum (plural obiter dicta, often referred to simply as dicta), Latin for a statement said 'by the way', is a remark or observation made by a judge that, while included in the body of the court's opinion, does not form a necessary part of the court's decision. Unlike the rationes decidendi, obiter dicta are not the subject of the judicial decision. Under the doctrine of stare decisis obiter dicta are therefore not binding although, in some jurisdictions (such as England and Wales), they can be strongly persuasive.
